Crack In the Ceiling

Crack in the ceiling Dazzling figure Devilish design Reducing human creature into a head missing a spine. Ravishing eyes diving into mine destroying all that’s decent and fine Black queen toppled White king Values Bend the knee Morals Shrank shamefully Poppies Awakens Lust and desire Hidden Under a blanket Of dust Spread by A local friar Weeping mothers Cursing fathers Blatantly picking Their daughters Flowers. Lavishly seeding red carnations on needful acres. Countdown Cardiac device Crack in the ceiling Staring eyes Beckoning Hells stairway Soul unshacled Passed Lucifers’ gateway. Here rests Remorse and regrets
